Managing Wealth Complexity & Responsibility
Crossing into eight-figure wealth is a major milestone. It creates more freedom, but also more complexity and responsibility. At Equilibrium Wealth Advisors (EWA), we specialize in helping families with $10 million to $100 million+ in net worth simplify the complicated, protect what matters, and ensure their wealth fuels purpose, not pressure. With offices based in Pittsburgh, we serve clients locally and across the U.S. Contact us at (412) 991-1385 or request an appointment now.
The Unique Crossroads of Ultra-High-Net-Worth Families
At this level, wealth management questions shift from “Will I be okay?” to “How do I structure this wealth so it enhances, not complicates, my life, relationships, and legacy?”
01
Enough vs. More
For many, $10 million is already “enough.” The question becomes how to pursue growth. Do you aim for $25 million or $100 million+? If so, what is the cost to your time, family, and health? We help you reframe the goal: not just a bigger number, but a life by design with clarity, balance, and fulfillment.
02
Complex Portfolios
Liquidity often coexists with concentrated business equity, private real estate, or single-stock exposure. We design strategies to reduce concentration risk while opening access to private credit, private equity, and institutional-grade opportunities.
03
Generational Wealth & Governance
Ninety percent of wealth is lost by the third generation. EWA builds intentional governance with family meetings, gifting programs, and value-based education, so your wealth strengthens future generations rather than divides them.
04
Taxes & Estate Planning
With potential estate tax reductions on the horizon, $10 million to $100 million+ families face real exposure. We design trusts, charitable structures, and gifting plans to protect wealth and maximize impact.
05
Lifestyle & Identity
Wealth can isolate. Friends may not understand your challenges, and every purchase can feel like a statement. We help you simplify complexity, maintain privacy, and align your wealth with what truly matters—whether that means philanthropy, a family retreat, or more time and freedom.
